This study proposes a stereo camera based framework combined with preprocessing techniques to improve the accuracy of vehicle detection and distance estimation. A total of 3,270 stereo images were used to train and evaluate multiple YOLO models (YOLOv5 to YOLOv8) under two scenarios: one without preprocessing, and another with an enhanced preprocessing pipeline. Experiments were conducted over 100+ epochs using an NVIDIA Tesla T4 GPU. In Scenario 1, YOLOv5 achieved a mean average precision (mAP 50) of 92.90% and a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 8.40%. In Scenario 2, after applying data augmentation, normalization, and contrast enhancement, the mAP 50 improved to 97.50% while the MAPE dropped significantly to 2.11%. These results demonstrate that integrating stereo vision with robust input enhancement can significantly boost object recognition and distance estimation, laying a solid foundation for effective detection of sudden braking events in complex traffic settings. ## Keywords - Artificial intelligence - Computer vision - Preprocessor - Computer science - Anomaly detection - Object detection - Stereopsis - Stereo cameras - Mean absolute percentage error - Stereo camera - Pattern recognition (psychology) - Data pre-processing - Contrast (vision) - Computer stereo vision - Intelligent transportation system - Stereo imaging - Engineering - Object (grammar) - Mean squared error - Image processing - Distance measurement --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
